A Festive Twist on a Classic Favorite
There’s something timeless about shortbread—crisp, buttery, crumbly, and beautifully simple. I’ve always adored it in its purest form. But when the holidays roll around and I’m craving something with a little sparkle, these Cranberry Pistachio Shortbread Cookies are my go-to.
They keep that signature shortbread texture but add a burst of tart dried cranberries, fragrant orange zest, and the sweet nuttiness of pistachios. The result? A cookie that’s festive without being fussy—and a welcome break from the sugar overload of typical holiday treats.
